Sunshine sneezes?!


Question: Sunshine sneezes!?
Why is it that I sneeze when I walk outside into the bright sunshine!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
"Reflexive sneezing induced by light, and sunlight in particular, is estimated to occur in 18 to 35 percent of the population and is known as the photic sneeze reflex (PSR) or the ACHOO (autosomal dominant compulsive helio-ophthalmic outbursts of sneezing) syndrome!."

And!.!.

"In fact, studies conducted by the military revealed that the PSR is not mediated by specific wavelengths of light and thus cannot be mitigated by the use of filtering lenses; rather the investigators concluded that the PSR is induced by changes in light intensity!. Others have not found flickering light to precipitate the PSR!. Exactly how sunlight causes some people to sneeze remains unknown!."Www@Answer-Health@Com

Wear very dark, UV coated, polarized sunglasses when you go outside!. OR wear sunglasses of a completely different color (blue, amber, brown, black, green, purple, etc!.) One of those should do the trick for you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

you may be allegic to pollen or something else outside!. the sun could heat up pollen and stuff and that is what makes you sneeze!. you should go to the doctor and ask them =D
